Light Control Using an Octupole Magnet

What can you expect?
We’ll explain in simple terms how an octupole magnet works. With this special magnet configuration, four magnetic fields can be superimposed in such a way that they act in all directions in space. This allows for the precise investigation of the magneto-optical properties of new materials.

What is this useful for?
For example, it can be used to develop magneto-optical storage devices that could be used in optical data processing.
